Important note for iPhone and iPad users:

Several chapters of The Gospel in Spanish use side-by-side columns for Spanish and English. The Kindle app for iPad and iPhone does not yet have full support for Style Sheets, and will display a paragraph in Spanish, then the paragraph in English. While this is not as nice as the columns, it's still perfectly readable. If you have an iPhone or iPod, you might want to consider buying the Gospel in Spanish in iBooks or Kobo which have support for columns. Only Kindle for IOS (iPad, iPhone, and iPod) has this problem. Columns work correctly on newer Kindle e-readers, and on Kindle software for Android phones and tablets, Windows, and Macintosh.
